AutoRetro Podcast: Season 2 | Episode 3 - Byron Mathioudakis

Byron is a motoring journalist in Australia, officially starting in 1997 for John Mellor. His automotive passion, however, started at the age of 3 (more on that in this episode!).

He is the self-proclaimed "least beloved" motoring journalist in Australia - but with countless published articles and an encyclopedic knowledge of cars from the past and present, Byron is the definition of a car enthusiast writing about his passion.

We had great fun filming this episode of AutoRetro, and we hope you enjoy listening to Byron's life in cars!

For our final episode for Season 1, we welcome our long-time friend David Day on to the AutoRetro Podcast.

After a long career in commercial aviation, our now retired guest David Day enjoys nothing more than tinkering with his vast collection of cars.

He doesn't shy away from a rare import and if there was a collective noun for rotary engines we would insert it here!

AutoRetro Podcast: Season 1 | Episode 7 - John Orlando Birt

After studying fine arts John's eye for design led him to a career with Chrysler and then more notably Ford during the 70's and 80's. 

Elements of everyday and now iconic models were penned by John. Remember the Carla Zampatti Laser, the early Telstar, the Capri? John was there when it happened!
